Which Netgear router buy?
Hi there, i have virgin media 100mbps contact and hub3 as main router. From that i run cat7 cable to living room downstairs, where is netgear r6220 with tv and home cinema hanged on.
I have another cat7 cable running from hub3 to my office/cave. I m happy with netgear ant nighthawk app, so i would like another netgear router for my office to run 2 gaming computers and printer by wire as well as to spread wifi upstairs.
Here is question coming. Which netgear router new or second hand would be best for my case please? I would like to see wifi6 and tri-band. Terace house from concrete, 10x25m including garden.
Budget is £100-£200 ish.
Thank you.

- microchip8MasterYou don't find a triband for this budget. But take a look at the RAX40 series (RAX40, 43, 45, etc). I use a RAX43 and it has a similar range as an R7800. While it has firmware bugs, nothing really is a showstopper for me.

$100-200 and wanting an AX router with triband makes it a challenge. Not sure if its a manageable challenge as even the older R8000P (6-7 years old) is still over $200 here in the US. Not sure about the EU.
